What happened on April, 26 1986 in Chernobyl?

Chernobyl Nuclear reactor №

4 crashed. As a result of it great area of the Belarusian territory became contaminated with radioactive particles. The contamination caused a rapid raise of such incurable illnesses as cancer. A lot of people died from leukemia. Nowadays 15% of the Belarusian territory isn’t valid for consumption. The harmful effect of the tragedy according to some estimations amounts to $ 30 billion.

3 nuclear power plants

experienced problems with overheating reactors but 2 were brought under control, leaving all eyes focused on the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant where the tsunami overran the diesel powered generators, leading to the emergency shutdown of the reactors.

Compare Chernobyl crash with that in Fukusima: Since the reactor's cooling

Compare Chernobyl crash with that in Fukusima:

Since the reactor's cooling capability

was limited, and the water inventory in the reactor was decreasing, engineers decided to use sea water to cool reactors. This process decreased the temperature of the fuel rods to a non-damaging level.
Слайд 39

Слайд 40

At the station, a sharp increase in background radiation was immediately

At the station, a sharp increase in background radiation was immediately

registered which exceeds the rate of 10 thousand times. The cause of the explosion is linked to a loss of power and subsequent overheating caused by failures in the plant's cooling system. The Fukusima nuclear plant was badly damaged after this natural disaster.

Aftermaths

As of late March 26, some 99 products, including milk and

vegetables, had been found to be contaminated in Tokyo. Radiation has already seeped into vegetables, raw milk, the water supply and even seawater in areas surrounding the plant. Traces of radiation first detected in spinach and milk from farms 30-120 km from the nuclear plant.
